Answer:

C(8) = $290

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Bob's Plumbing charge a flat fee of $50, then it is the y-intercept.

As detailed in the given problem, x is the number of hours they work.

They charge $30 for every x number of hours on the job. This represents the slope.

C(x) represents the total cost of working for x number of hours.

Given these factors, we can establish the following function rule:

C(x) = 30x + 50

To evaluate the function for 8 hours of work:

C(8) = 30(8) + 50

C(8) = 240 + 50

C(8) = 290

Therefore, the cost of working for 8 hours is $290.

What is the quotient? Negative StartFraction 3 over 8 EndFraction divided by negative one-fourth

anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

$\dfrac{3}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given 2 fractions.

1st fraction is Negative StartFraction 3 over 8

i.e.

$-\dfrac{3}{8}$

2nd fraction is negative one-fourth

i.e.

$-\dfrac{1}{4}$

We have to find the quotient when 1st fraction is divided by 2nd fraction.

<u>Definition</u> of quotient is given as:

Quotient is the result obtained when one number is divided by other number.

$-\dfrac{3}{8} \div -\dfrac{1}{4} \text{ is to be calculated.}$

$\div$ is converted to $\times$ and the 2nd fraction is reversed i.e.

if the fraction is $\frac{p}{q}$ it becomes $\frac{q}{p}$ and the sign $\div$ is changed to $\times$ .

Solving above:

$-\dfrac{3}{8} \times -\dfrac{4}{1}\\ \text {Multiplication/Division of 2 negative number gives a positive number}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{3}{2}$

So, the quotient is $\frac{3}{2}$ .
